"If my eyes could show my soul, everyone would cry when they saw me smile."
"I'm a very reclusive person."
"I'm a much happier person than a lot of people think I am."
"I started being really proud of the fact that I was gay, even though I wasn't."
"I'm going to be a superstar musician, kill myself, and go out in a flame of glory."
American singer-songwriter and Nirvana frontman whose Nevermind (1991) ended the hair-metal era; died of suicide April 5, 1994. Closely associated with Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam frontman and grunge contemporary) and Layne Staley (Alice in Chains frontman). For an intellectual contrast, see Axl Rose, Guns N' Roses frontman — Nevermind toppled GNR's Use Your Illusion II from #1 in January 1992, ending the late-80s Sunset Strip excess Cobain's grunge austerity was specifically reacting against. The cleanest single moment in late-20th-century rock — the literal generational pivot from hair-metal excess to flannel-shirt anti-rock-star authenticity.
